Expand your hybrid cloud journey with IBM Power Systems Virtual Server. Maintain the security and trusted, high performance of IBM Power Systems while modernizing at your pace and price point, on and off premises. Get the benefits of hybrid cloud with a consistent experience and connectivity to your Power Systems infrastructure.

IBM® Power Systems™ Virtual Server is a Power Systems offering. Power Systems Virtual Servers are located in the IBM data centers, distinct from the IBM Cloud servers with separate networks and direct-attached storage. You can use the Power Systems Virtual Servers to deploy a virtual server, also known as a logical partition (LPAR), in a matter of minutes. IBM Power Systems clients who have typically relied upon on-premises-only infrastructure can now quickly and economically extend their Power IT resources off-premises. Avoid the large capital expense or added risk when migrating your essential workloads and get started with Power Systems Virtual Servers today!

In the data centers, the Power Systems Virtual Servers are separated from the rest of the IBM Cloud servers with separate networks and direct-attached storage. The internal networks are fenced but offer connectivity options to IBM Cloud infrastructure or on-premises environments. This infrastructure design enables Power Systems Virtual Servers to maintain key enterprise software certification and support as the Power Systems Virtual Server architecture is identical to certified on-premises infrastructure.

Power Systems Virtual Servers integrates your AIX, IBM i, or Linux® capabilities in an off-premises environment distinct from the IBM Cloud. You get fast, self-service provisioning, flexible management both on-premises and off-premises, and similar to on-premises it can be connected to access a stack of enterprise services from IBM – all with pay-as-you-use billing that lets you easily scale up and out. You can quickly deploy a Power Systems Virtual Server to meet your specific business needs and easily control workload demands."
